The full (PDF) papers are downloadable from the site. I believe that Microsoft is working on something like this (video indexing/search/retrieval), but I am not sure when it is going to be made available as a commercial tool. You can browse the <a href="http://research.microsoft.com/wsm/#people" rel="nofollow">individual member of the Microsoft Web Mining Group Asia Division</a>, where they list their peer review publications and most of their papers are free to download. I find the Microsoft Asia's list of publications very useful in that I had implemented certain algorithms for my own use in the past. Hey Patric Koppular,
